- Vocal cord dysfunction diagnosis may be improved by a screening check list(2016) PINTO, Lucia Helena Eduardo; AUN, Marcelo Vivolo; CUKIER-BLAJ, Sabrina; STELMACH, Rafael; CUKIER, Alberto; KALIL, Jorge; AGONDI, Rosana Camara; GIAVINA-BIANCHI, PedroBackground: Many patients with vocal cord dysfunction (VCD), with or without asthma, receive inappropriate treatment because they are misdiagnosed as having difficult-to-control asthma alone. We developed a clinical screening check list designed to aid the diagnosis of VCD. Methods: A prospective observational study involving 80 patients aged >= 8 years, diagnosed with severe asthma. After anamnesis and physical examination, physicians completed a check list with 6 questions to identify VCD, for which the answer ""yes"" counted one point. Then patients underwent spirometry and laryngoscopy. On the basis of the laryngoscopic findings, we created three patient groups: VCD (vocal cord adduction during inspiration, n = 14); unconfirmed VCD (inconclusive findings, n = 29); and control (normal findings, n = 37). We attempted to determine whether any of those groups were associated with the responses to individual questions or sets of questions on the check list. Results: The proportion of affirmative answers to the question ""Does pulmonary auscultation reveal wheezing, predominantly in the cervical region, and/or stridor?"" was significantly higher for the VCD group than for the other two groups (P = 0.006), notably in elderly patients. The variable ""4 or more affirmative answers"" was more common in VCD and unconfirmed VCD groups in comparison to controls (P = 0.022). Conclusions: A finding of wheezing or stridor on auscultation of the cervical region is suggestive of vocal cord dysfunction, especially in elderly patients, and such dysfunction can be confirmed through laryngoscopy. Our VCD screening check list proved to be useful in the screening of VCD among patients with severe asthma.
- Diagnosis and treatment of systemic mastocytosis in Brazil: Recommendations of a multidisciplinary expert panel(2022) VELLOSO, Elvira D. Rodrigues Pereira; PADULLA, Georgia A.; CERQUEIRA, Ana Maria Mosca de; SOUSA, Adriana Martins de; SANDES, Alex Freire; TRAINA, Fabiola; SEGURO, Fernanda Salles; NOGUEIRA, Frederico Lisboa; PEREIRA, Grazielly de Fathima; BOECHAT, jose Laerte; PAGNANO, Katia Borgia Barbosa; MARCHI, Luan Lima; ENSINA, Luis Felipe; GIAVINA-BIANCHI, Mara; AUN, Marcelo Vivolo; AGONDI, Rosana Camara; SANTOS, Fabio Pires de Souza; GIAVINA-BIANCHI, PedroIntroduction: Systemic Mastocytosis comprises a group of neoplastic diseases character-ized by clonal expansion and infiltration of mast cells into several organs. The diagnosis and treatment of this disease may be challenging for non-specialists. Objective: Make suggestions or recommendations in Systemic Mastocytosis based in a panel of Brazil-ian specialists.Method and results: An online expert panel with 18 multidisciplinary specialists was con-vened to propose recommendations on the diagnosis and treatment of Systemic Mastocy-tosis in Brazil. Recommendations were based on discussions of topics and multiple-choice questions and were graded using the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine 2011 Lev-els of Evidence Chart. Conclusion: Twenty-two recommendations or suggestions were proposed based on a litera-ture review and graded according to the findings.(c) 2022 Associacao Brasileira de Hematologia, Hemoterapia e Terapia Celular.

bookPart Angioedema Hereditário(2016) KELMANN, Nathália Portilho; AUN, Marcelo Vivolo; MOTTA, Antonio Abílio; BIANCHI, Pedro Giavina- Algorithm to guide re-exposure to penicillin in allergic pregnant women with syphilis: Efficacy and safety(2021) GARCIA, Juliana Foes Bianchini; AUN, Marcelo Vivolo; MOTTA, Antonio Abilio; CASTELLS, Mariana; KALIL, Jorge; GIAVINA-BIANCHI, PedroResults: Ninety-one patients were enrolled. Allergy to penicillin was confirmed in 7.69% of pregnant women with syphilis and clinical history of allergy to penicillin; in all cases the diagnosis was made through intradermal testing, which predicted 100% of the breakthrough reactions observed during rapid drug desensitization (p < 0.001). Risk stratification based on the initial clinical reaction and skin testing to guide penicillin re-introduction through drug challenge or desensitization was safe (97.8%) and effective (97.8%). Conclusion: We developed and showed the efficacy and safety of an algorithm to guide reexposure to penicillin in pregnant women with syphilis and labeled as allergic to this drug. Intradermal test is an excellent biomarker in the diagnosis of immediate hypersensitivity reaction to penicillin and to predict breakthrough reaction during rapid drug desensitization. Further studies Background: Gestational syphilis is underdiagnosed and undertreated, leading to stillbirth, prematurity, low birthweight, neonatal death, and congenital syphilis. Most patients who label as allergic to penicillin are misdiagnosed. Objective: To assess the efficacy and safety of an algorithm to guide re-exposure to penicillin in pregnant women with syphilis and reporting allergy to the antibiotic. Methods: We performed a prospective study assessing pregnant women with syphilis and labeled as allergic to penicillin. Based on clinical history, patients were divided in two groups: high risk and low-risk to penicillin allergy. Low-risk patients with negative skin testing and negative serum specific IgE to penicillin underwent drug provocation test. The remaining patients underwent desensitization. Results: Ninety-one patients were enrolled. Allergy to penicillin was confirmed in 7.69% of pregnant women with syphilis and clinical history of allergy to penicillin; in all cases the diagnosis was made through intradermal testing, which predicted 100% of the breakthrough reactions observed during rapid drug desensitization (p < 0.001). Risk stratification based on the initial clinical reaction and skin testing to guide penicillin re-introduction through drug challenge or desensitization was safe (97.8%) and effective (97.8%). Conclusion: We developed and showed the efficacy and safety of an algorithm to guide re exposure to penicillin in pregnant women with syphilis and labeled as allergic to this drug. Intradermal test is an excellent biomarker in the diagnosis of immediate hypersensitivity reaction to penicillin and to predict breakthrough reaction during rapid drug desensitization. Further studies may confirm the greater safety of the intravenous protocol compared to the oral protocol.
- Outcomes and safety of drug provocation tests(2011) AUN, Marcelo Vivolo; BISACCIONI, Carla; GARRO, Laila Sabino; RODRIGUES, Adriana Teixeira; TANNO, Luciana Kase; ENSINA, Luis Felipe Chiaverirti; KALIL, Jorge; MOTTA, Antonio Abilio; GIAVINA-BIANCHI, PedroDrug provocation tests (DPTs) are considered the gold standard for identifying adverse drug reactions (ADRs). The aim of this study was to analyze DPT results and discuss severe systemic reactions associated with them. This was a retrospective analysis of 500 patients with ADRs who sought treatment and were submitted to DPTs when indicated between 2006 and 2010. We performed DPTs according to the European Network for Drug Allergy recommendations. Single-blind, placebo-controlled DPTs were performed with antibiotics, local anesthetics, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, as well as with other drugs. Patient characteristics, DPT results, and reactions were analyzed. The sample comprised 198 patients (80.8% of whom were female patients) submitted to 243 DPTs. Ages ranged from 9 to 84 years (mean, 39.9 years). The 243 DPTs were performed with local anesthetics (n = 93), antibiotics (n = 19), acetaminophen (n = 44), benzydamine (n = 33), COX-2 inhibitors (n = 26), dipyrone (n = 7), aspirin (n = 4), or other drugs (n = 17). The results of 4 tests (1.6%) were inconclusive, whereas those of 10 (4.1%) revealed positive reactions to antibiotics (2/19), COX-2 inhibitors (2/26), acetaminophen (3/44), and local anesthetics (3/93). Two severe reactions were observed: cephalexin-induced anaphylactic shock and bupivacaine-induced anaphylaxis without shock. Four patients (2.0%) reacted to the placebo before administration of the drug. Drug provocation tests are safe for use in clinical practice but they should be placebo-controlled and should be performed under the supervision of an allergist. To confirm a presumptive diagnosis and to manage allergies appropriately, it is crucial to perform DPTs. (Allergy Asthma Proc 32:301-306, 2011; doi: 10.2500/aap.2011.32.3450)
